Thread:
A proper fix and big FA
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood</b></div><div>The worst part of all this for Buffalo fans is that even if they were able to make the moves above (which is highly doubtful) you are in the Atlantic next season. Even with the (on paper) improvements you still have Boston, Tampa, TO, Florida and Montreal all ahead of you. Is this roster good enough to pass 2 of those teams to ensure a wildcard spot? Montreal maybe, or maybe Florida as well but still just not as good as the top 3.
Honestly I don't know what I'd do if I was in charge. You don't want to waste having a guy like Eichel but the path to winning is so difficult. Can you convince him to look long term? Because the only reasonable path to even making the playoffs is thinking about 2-3 years down the line. Wait for one or both of Boston and Tampa to start declining and time your window to that point. Not long after Ottawa and possibly Detroit will be on the rise so it would be a short window and you still have TO who will still have Matthews, Marner and Nylander in their primes to contend with as well.
Or
Do you just blow it up, move everyone including Eichel and start over and plan for a long and methodical rebuild. Which the team hasn't really ever done. It's been the same thing in a 3 year cycle. Bottom out, draft high, make some minor improvements and jump the gun by adding a bunch of vets and disappoint before bottoming out again. They should have just been okay with losing for a few year, keep getting talented young players and wait to have a foundation to build up again. They have 2 pieces to that puzzle in Eichel and Dahlin but need a 2C and a lot more depth. Buying it in FA just doesn't work. They have proven it over and over</div></div>
Couldn't agree with you more man. The problem is, you could get an amazing haul for Jack. Easily getting two first, top prospect and good skaters back. But then youre moving one of the best centers in the league. They have so many holes that cant be fixed over one season too thanks to bad contracts and prospects not developing.
If I could have final say, I would try and trade Jack while I can. Hes been losing for 6 years, his effort on the ice is showing because of the losing and I dont blame him. Problem is, you will never get your value back for a 25 year old top 5 center.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>Why would you destroy the defense, its the only thing keeping them from getting shelled like Detroit. Trading your best Goalie prospect for a Dman that you didnt need until you created a depth problem with prior bad trades. Risto > Manson</div></div>
SO let me get this straight, you guys have a problem getting scored on too much, and you dont think an amazing shut down D in Mason is your answer? Dear lord. Mason has been a stable on the Ducks blue line for years as their best shut down guy. Risto couldnt stop a beach ball from getting past him. Risto has wanted out for years and I still dont understand why Sabers fans and management did not trade him 2 years ago when his value was super high

upgrade in net
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheEarthmaster</b></div><div>Is it an upgrade in net though? Reimer had a significantly better season than Fleury last year and at this point Fleury is old enough where you wonder if he's just cooked. Seems like a lot to give up for what may or may not be an upgrade and you'll be saddled with Fleury's contract while trying to re-sign Svechnikov.</div></div>
While I don't disagree that Reimer's post season numbers were great, he is much more suited to a backup role. Fleury on the other hand is a goalie who does better when he plays more and behind one of the best D cores in Carolina, I feel like he could be a top 5 goalie with the switch

Fixing Arizona
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ste_Catherine_Street</b></div><div>Isn't it a 2hour drive from Tucson? I always thought GLendale was pretty much downtown Phoenix.
It isn't a coincidence that both Arizona and Ottawa have horrible attendance.
The league should have never allowed arenas to either a) be so far from urban areas or b) allowed owners to rent arenas. The NYI, Ottawa Sens and Yotes all suffer because of it.
Arizona's attendance needs to improve for sure</div></div>
completely agree. I have no idea who's amazing idea it was to have their NHL teams 1-2 hours away from their downtown hubs.

so let me ask, have you ever been to a game in Glendale? Its a freaking blast. there are some dedicated hockey fans down there that are just dying to watch hockey but their current barn is in such a ****ty area. Move their barn to downtown and watch the attendance sky rocket. They love their hockey but a lot of fans can't comment to a two hour drive from downtown.

Leafs can keep Johnsson, he is not needed by the Wild. As mentioned, you forgot Kaprizov who will need a top 6 role (that's why they traded Zucker).
Kunin seems to be a RW at this point, don't think he'll end up being a center. Pateryn is not a top 4 D, if they trade one it'll be Soucy likely being moved up to the top 4.</div></div>

I feel like the Leafs would cause Hartman brings some toughness they'll lose in Clifford and Nylander is on a good deal but the need for a steady RHD to play with Reilly is tough time to find.

Ill be interested to see what Johnsson gets too. He's easily a 40 point guy but does everyone know that? As for Bracco at this point I just want him to go somewhere he could play for his sake
